Re: Archive files with upper case file names

    This error is caused by out-of-sync lists `auto-mode-alist' and
    `auto-coding-alist' where upper case extensions for archive files
    exist in the former, but not in the latter.

I agree that the lists should be sync'd; however, when do people
actually use upper-case extensions for these files?  It doesn't seem
to be normal practice.

I think that understanding how this case occurs will help us
decide whether we should do case-independent match somewhere.
